The Nigerian Government has declared that it is prepared to send a civilian to space, Dockaysworld reports.

The Director General of the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA), Mathew Adepoju, announced this in a press briefing on Wednesday.

Adepoju disclosed that the Federal Government has signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in collaboration with NASRDA and the Space Exploration and Research Agency.

“This collaboration, which is coming to the country, marks a significant milestone in Nigeria’s 25th anniversary of Space Exploration journey and opens new opportunities for scientific research and technological advancement,” Adepoju said.

While embraced the development, others have criticized the federal government’s decision, asking that priority be given to the more pressing economic problems rocking the nation.
